I'm a retired psychotherapist. If I had a client more than 6 months I knew I wasn't doing my job. We would talk about what wasn't working.

Was the client doing his homework? Was I not listening well enough? Could a different therapist better meet the client's needs?

Psychoanalysis and its cousin, psychotherapy, arose out of non-Christian sources.

It fails because it does not recognize that evil is real and that some behaviors are sins against the only God, Who created us and our universe.
